Hi, I'm Mandi.

3
Growing up, we moved around a lot because my parents were journalists.
4
I got really good at making friends quickly, but holding on to any of them was tough since I always ended up leaving.
5
No matter how many of my so -called besties promised they'd stay in touch, after a while, they never did.
6
It was heartbreaking every time.
7
One day, Mom came home with big news.
8
She got a job in Washington, D .C for a national newspaper, and we wouldn't have to move anymore.
9
I was so excited.
10
Finally, I would have rooms of her own to decorate.
11
make friends that would last.
12
It was a dream.
13
When I started at my new high school, I was nervous.
14
I had to make an amazing first impression because this one had to stick.
15
When I sat down at my desk in the homeroom, the other kids looked at me like I was an alien.
16
Until a pretty brunette girl sat down next to me.
17
"Hey, I'm Jasmine." "Love your jeans, where'd you get them?" "Um, a thrift store in New York?" "Oh my god,
18
is that where you're from?" "Sort of." I told her all about life on the road, and we hit it off right away.
19
I could tell she was popular, and it was easy to see why.
20
Very involved in all sorts of clubs and sports.
21
So charming and top two of our class.
22
She was always competing for the top spot against this one kid, Chase.
23
She warned me about how annoying he was, and I totally agreed.
24
I was stuck next to him in math class, and he was always talking and distracting me from taking notes.
25
From the second we met, Jasmine invited me everywhere with her and her friends.
26
We did our homework together, ate lunch, had sleepovers.
27
It was amazing!
28
Soon after I started school, Jasmine convinced me to come to her French club to see if I wanted to join.
29
She introduced me to her friend Camille and we had so much fun.
30
We watched French movies and practiced speaking with each other.
31
I joined immediately.
32
They were going to choose two students for a summer study abroad in Paris.
33
I just knew it would be a really smart move for my future.
34
One day, I went to Camille's house to study with her, and suddenly the cutest boy I'd ever seen walked into her kitchen.
35
Hey, butthead.
36
Um, excuse me?
37
little sister.
38
Ugh, don't listen to him.
39
I'm Ryan.
40
You must be the famous Mandy I've heard so much about.
41
Don't you have somewhere else to be?
42
Nowhere better than right where Mandy is.
43
Then he smiled the most perfect smile I'd ever seen.
44
I could have melted into a puddle right there.
45
The next day at French Club, I told Jasmine all about him.
46
Oh my god, Jazz, he's on the soccer team, good at school.
47
Wow, he sounds like...
48
"The perfect package?
49
OMG, he's here !" She turned to see Ryan walk into the room right then.
50
Suddenly, her eyes turned to ice in front of me.
51
Ryan, he's my ex.
52
Oh, but I mean, if you like him, I guess...
53
No, no, of course, I wouldn't.
54
Oh, good, because it'd be so weird.
55
I'm so glad we're friends.
56
What are you all talking about?
57
Oh, nothing.
58
It's, um, nice to see you again.
59
Since when are you in French Club?
60
Since I found out Mandy joined.
61
It was so awkward, I thought I'd die.
62
clapped her hands for announcement time.
63
"For our upcoming parents' night, we will be breaking off into pairs to research and cook a classic French dish." She started grouping us and,
64
surprise, surprise, I got paired with Ryan.
65
For just a second, I thought I could see the ice return to Jasmine's eyes, but she blinked and it was gone.
66
I felt sort of guilty that I'd be spending so much time with Ryan, but I vowed to keep my promise to Jasmine.
67
Soon him all night would be the perfect punishment for me.
68
A few days later, Ryan and I had to get together at his house to make chocolate mousse.
69
My favorite.
70
Have you ever made this before?
71
No, but I've watched my dad make it, so I think I...
72
Just then, I started the mixer.
73
It started whipping everything up so fast that our chocolate mixture started flying out of the bowl.
74
Soon, we were both covered in chocolate.
75
I was mortified, but Ryan just laughed and swiped some chocolate off my nose.
76
Looks good to me.
77
to sit next to Chatterbox Chase all night could ruin my mood.
78
After that, Ryan started asking me to hang out more and more, Soccer games, study sessions, sometimes even trips for ice cream after.
79
He was really funny, and we liked all the same books.
80
I could tell he liked me, and I was really starting to like him, but I couldn't betray Jasmine.
81
When I told my mom about it, she thought I was being ridiculous.
82
I don't think Jasmine really has your best interests at heart, Mandy.
83
She was my first friend here, but that doesn't make her a good friend.
84
What kind of friend keeps you from being with someone you really like?
85
I was surprised the next day at lunch when our group started talking about boys to hear Jasmine exclaim, "Who needs 'em?
86
I've so moved on from Ryan.
87
I mean, we only dated a few weeks anyway.
88
Mandy, you can have him for all I care." I was elated to hear her say that.
89
But now, I was nervous.
90
I'd never really pursued anyone before.
91
But all the signs were there, and I decided to go for it.
92
Soon after, Ryan hurt his ankle at a soccer match and had to leave the field.
93
We lost.
94
given her blessing.
95
When I walked into his living room with some cheery daisies, his whole face lit up and he pulled me down to the couch in a huge hug.
96
When we pulled away, I felt like I was falling into his beautiful brown eyes.
97
I thought for just a second.
98
I might get my first real kiss, but I chickened out.
99
I, um, brought some ice cream too, for Sundays.
100
You're the best, you know that?
101
We watched TV and ate way too much ice cream, but things felt a little different.
102
He was texting almost constantly when he usually was always talking to me nonstop.
103
I wondered if I had ruined things by pulling away earlier.
104
I tried to ignore it, but when my mom came to get me, I was sort of glad to leave.
105
For the next few days, Paris trip, but I was glad for the distraction
106
when Jasmine announced her birthday party to the whole class." Mini -golf this weekend.
107
My birthday wish list is on all the invites.
108
You going? Of course.
109
Jazz is my best friend.
110
Sure she is.
111
"Cryptic much?
112
You're so weird.
113
I caught up with her in the hallway after.
114
Can I hitch a ride to your party?" This will be so fun.
115
I already have your gift.
116
My carpool is full already.
117
Oh, okay.
118
I'll just.. but she was already halfway down the hall, leaving me in her dust.
119
I figured she was just distracted about her party and tried not to think about her weird behavior.
120
I texted Ryan to see if he and Camille wanted to carpool, but all I got were three typing bubbles in response.
121
And then, nothing.
122
In fact, I was just distracted about her party and tried I didn't hear anything from anyone all weekend.
123
What was going on?
124
On Saturday, when my mom dropped me off at mini golf, a gift in hand for Jasmine, I pasted a big smile on my face as I got out of the car.
125
Chase waved to me and smiled.
126
He really wasn't so annoying, maybe just a little awkward.
127
As we walked into the party room, imagine my shock when I saw Jasmine standing there, holding hands with none other than...
128
Ryan?
129
A pit dropped to the bottom of my stomach.
130
When she leaned over to kiss him, I thought I'd die.
131
All I wanted to do was run home and curl up under the covers, but I couldn't.
132
It was Jasmine's birthday, my best friend.
133
Still, I was mortified.
134
together.
135
Now, he wouldn't even look at me.
136
As everyone started pairing off and heading to the golf course, I realized I didn't have a partner.
137
Blinking back tears, I suddenly felt a warm hand on my shoulder.
138
"Hey, uh, let's pair up for a round?" "Um, sure." Chase and I played through, and even though I had a pit in my stomach, we actually had a lot of fun.
139
He was pretty good, and even when I kept missing my shots, He'd sneak over it and nudge it in with his foot and pretend he hadn't.
140
When we went inside for Jasmine's cake, I tried to put on a brave face, But when Ryan leaned over to help her blow out her birthday candles,
141
and Jasmine turned to smile at me with a gleam in her eye like nothing was wrong, I knew I had to leave.
142
I snuck out to the bathroom to call my mom to get me, and as soon as I got into her car, burst into tears and cried all the way home.
143
And even though Chase texted me to check on me, and Camille did too, the one person who I actually thought would worry enough to reach out never did.
144
I didn't hear from Jasmine until Monday in homeroom.
145
"Mandy, why'd you leave my party?
146
The cake was so good." "Why did I leave?" Jasmine?
147
What?
148
You have to know why I left.
149
I don't know what you're talking about.
150
You knew I liked Ryan.
151
You told me you'd moved on.
152
And all of a sudden you show up with him without telling me?
153
How can you be mad?
154
He was my boyfriend.
155
Your ex -boyfriend that you said I could pursue.
156
Why tell me that if you wanted him back all along?
157
See, this is why we kept it quiet.
158
We knew you'd be upset.
159
What?
160
We got back together the day he got hurt at his soccer match.
161
He wanted to tell you, but we all knew you'd just be upset.
162
So you've just been lying to me for weeks?
163
All of you?
164
"Jazz, how am I supposed to trust anything any of you say?" "All's fair in love and war." And with that, she flipped her hair over her shoulder and switched desks.
165
I was devastated.
166
My first real friend and everything had gotten so messed up.
167
What had I missed?
168
When I saw Ryan walking home from school, I sped up to catch him.
169
"What the heck, Ryan?
170
I thought we liked each other.
171
And then you show up like that with Jasmine and totally blindside me?
172
I didn't know you liked me." You knew I liked you.
173
There have been several moments, and I didn't just imagine that you liked me too.
174
I did, but you never said anything.
175
Well, neither did you.
176
"And then when Jasmine came to me after I got hurt saying that she wanted to get back together, why would I turn her down when I wasn't even the one to break up with her?" "Like me, don't like me.
177
Fine, but you could have had the decency to say something before just showing up like that and humiliating me.
178
I deserve better than that.
179
I tried to put on a brave face at school.
180
After all, hadn't I been a lone wolf for my whole life?
181
But I'd gotten so used to having a friend at school that I suddenly felt the absence.
182
Luckily, Chase came to sit by me the first time he saw me sitting alone at lunch.
183
I couldn't see why I'd hated him so much for so long, other than the fact that Jasmine didn't like him.
184
He was so sweet and really smart.
185
Even though I avoided Jasmine and Ryan at all costs, I refused to quit French Club.
186
As the weather got nicer, Chase tried to get me to come out to soccer games, parties, concerts, but my sole focus was on school.
187
I was more determined than ever to get one of the spots to go to Paris
188
and prayed that Jasmine wouldn't get the other one, Chase became my favorite study buddy.
189
He was almost as determined as I was for me to win the top spot on the Paris trip.
190
On the last day of school, our report cards came out.
191
Straight A's.
192
Chase and I got big ice cream sundaes after school to celebrate.
193
As I looked across the table at him, I thought about everything that had happened with Jasmine and Ryan
194
and our whole big group and I decided I was so glad to have one actual good friend, instead of a bunch of not -so -great ones.
195
Afterwards, Chase and I walked down the National Mall as the sun set.
196
"So, Mr. Number One in the class, how does it feel?" "I'm just glad to have beat her, to be honest.
197
Especially after everything that happened with you." "I can take care of myself." "I know.
198
But from day one, you seemed so nice
199
and I tried to make friends with you so quickly
200
because I knew she'd come after you right away." "What do you mean?
201
Jasmine and I have been in the same class since kindergarten.
202
She has always kept the girls she was most afraid of close.
203
You know, keep your friends close and your enemies closer." "But I was never her enemy." of the smart, pretty girls in our grade.
204
Even if you don't see it, trust me, to her, you were a threat.
205
Wow, I had no idea.
206
But if I had to go through all that to become friends with you, it was worth it.
207
Suddenly, my phone rang.
208
It was Madame de la Croix.
209
Hello?
210
Mandy!
211
I'm pleased to inform you that you have been selected for the summer study abroad in Paris.
212
"Pack your bags, mademoiselle.
213
I am so proud." "Oh wow, thank you so much, I mean, merci beaucoup." When we hung up, I squealed.
214
"Oh my god, I'm gonna have a stamp in my passport." Suddenly, Chase's phone rang, and when he saw the caller ID, he looked up at me with a gleam in his eye.
215
I could barely contain my excitement.
216
And when he finally said thank you and hung up, he turned to me with a huge smile.
217
"Looks like I'll have a matching stamp." "Paris, together?" I threw my arms around the window.
218
him, overjoyed to be off on a big adventure with my first real friend.

이 비디오로 배울 수 있는 것

이 대화를 통해 IELTS 스피킹에 중요한 일상 대화의 자연스러운 흐름과 감정 표현을 연습할 수 있습니다. 첫째, 친구와의 개인적인 이야기를 전달할 때 사용하는 구체적인 예시(예: "thrift store in New York")를 통해 상황 설명 능력을 키울 수 있습니다. 둘째, 상대방의 반응에 따라 말을 이어가는 기술(예: "She warned me about... and I totally agreed")을 익혀 대화의 연속성을 유지할 수 있습니다. 셋째, 감정이 담긴 표현("I could have melted into a puddle right there")을 사용해 말을 더 생동하게 만들 수 있습니다.

들어야 할 소리: 연결된 발음

유튜브 영어 공부를 할 때는 자연스러운 발음 패턴을 주의깊게 듣는 것이 중요합니다. 이 비디오에서 자주 나타나는 연결 발음을 살펴보세요. "got a job"은 /ɡɑːtə dʒɑːb/로 발음되어 "gotta job"처럼 들립니다. "sort of"는 /sɔːrtəv/로 축약되어 발음됩니다. 또한 "wouldn't have to move"에서 "have to"는 /hæftə/로 줄어듭니다. 이러한 연결과 축약을 잘 듣고 따라하면 native처럼 말하는 데 큰 도움이 됩니다.

Native처럼 말하기: 리듬과 강세

shadow speak(쉐도우 스피킹) 연습을 할 때는 화자의 리듬과 강세를 따라야 합니다. 이 비디오에서 Mandi는 이야기를 할 때 중요한 정보(예: "Washington, D.C", "top two of our class")에 강세를 두고 말합니다. 또한 긴 문장을 쉬는 구간(콤마나 마침표)에서 자연스럽게 멈추는 것을 관찰할 수 있습니다. 예를 들어 "Growing up, we moved around a lot because my parents were journalists"에서 "because" 앞에서 약간의 쉼을 가집니다. 이러한 리듬을 따라 연습하면 말이 더 자연스러워지고, shadowspeak 연습의 효과가 극대화됩니다. 특히 "I was so excited"에서 "so"를 강조하면 감정이 더 잘 전달됩니다. 자주 반복해서 연습해 보세요!

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
